Why this annotation

All hub genes are mitochondrial or metabolic: NDUFA6 (Complex I), ATP5MC3 (Complex V ATP synthase subunit c), COX7B (Complex IV), SLC25A3 (mitochondrial phosphate carrier, essential for ATP synthesis), TOMM20 (TOM complex, mitochondrial protein import), COX5A (Complex IV), MDH2 (TCA cycle), LDHB (lactate dehydrogenase B, pyruvate/lactate interconversion), GAPDH (glycolysis). This module captures both OxPhos and glycolytic/TCA metabolism, representing the broader mitochondrial energy metabolism program. Core coherence, all genes uniformly expressed. Neighbor to M91 (pure OxPhos) — M105 extends the program to include glycolysis and TCA, suggesting coupled energy metabolism.
